A New Jersey man was sentenced to almost six years in prison for his role in trafficking guns from South Carolina to his home state aboard Amtrak trains, the U.S. Attorney’s Office announced Monday.

He may not be any Tony Stark and it may not be powered by a mini arc reactor, but German inventor and owner of Laser Gadgets, Patrick Priebe, created an Iron Man glove that is nothing less than cool.

The glove comes complete with spot on sound effects and both blue and red lasers, which actually work to… ya know… destroy stuff. It was released – via YouTube video anyway – just in time for the newest Marvel movie — Avengers: Age of Ultron. Coincidence? I think not.

And rumor has it, Priebe will be showing off his gadget on the “Jimmy Kimmel Show.”

I was in the middle of a major retailer’s bathroom. My son, two at the time, was in the midst of potty training and had requested a detour to the restroom. Inside the safety of the ladies room stall, I took a few minutes to adjust the holster on my hip while I waited on him.
